episode_0135

Following Chen down a long hallway, we arrived in front of a huge door.

The door with the large lion head carved on it gave the viewer a sense of awe.

I stared up at the large lion’s head.

The grey lion had sharp eyes.

Chen stops for a moment and raises his hand to knock.

But Amy opened the door right away, leaving Chen behind.

A door that swings open without even a knock.

Beyond the doorway, Ferman was sitting at a large table.

He greeted us naturally, as if he knew the door would open like this.

“Come on in.”

“Why did you ask to see me?”

The door opened, but Amy didn’t come inside.

The war of nerves between Ferman and Amy continues.

After staring at Amy for a while without saying anything, Ferman shifted his gaze and spoke to Shine.

“Do you like the gift?”

I nodded slightly at Ferman’s question and held the necklace in my hand.

The coolness of the large jewel felt in my hand was transmitted.

“How long are you going to keep the kids here? Come in.”

Ferman spoke to Amy as if scolding her.

At those words, Amy could only sigh without saying anything.

“Let’s go.”

Amy started walking forward, gesturing towards us who were standing behind her.

I entered the room and looked around.

A red carpet was laid out across the wide open space.

Judging from the lack of a bed, it seemed to be a study or office used by Ferman.

In addition to the table in front of Ferman, there was another large table near the window.

Judging by the bookshelves and the numerous documents on top, this was definitely where Ferman worked.

Amy, Shine, and I sat side by side across the table.

Sitting across from us, Ferman gave us a small smile.

“I heard the story from Jinhan.”

Ferman raised his hand to begin the conversation.

At his gesture, the people standing around him began to move.

I was amazed by their movements.

Sitting here, I didn’t realize those people were standing there until they moved.

Those who responded to Ferman’s gesture began placing pretty teacups and various snacks on the table where we were sitting.

“He asked me to take good care of the kids.”

I started to watch Amy’s expression as I looked at the candy, which was a product I had never seen before.

Can I eat this?

Today I have already eaten way more than my allowed amount of snacks.

I put my hands on the table and started moving them slowly.

“Jin, are you taking care of the kids?”

“Yeah.”

Amy let out a long sigh, turned toward me, and pulled me into her arms.

“Ahh.”

The hand stretched out toward the candy could only wave in the air without achieving its goal.

Amy said, hugging me tightly.

“Be honest. It’s not because you asked me to.”

“I’m also doing his request in a half-hearted manner.”

“Are you trying to make the kids do weird things?”

Amy said that and rested her chin on my head.

I cried out in frustration at the weight of the pressure pressing down on me.

“Something weird? Me?”

Ferman muttered softly and burst into laughter.

His little laughter filled the room.

“Amy. I always said that people with great abilities deserve to be treated accordingly.”

“You always had it on your lips.”

“How do you think those kids deserve to be treated?”

Amy kept her mouth shut and said nothing.

“Your father is relieved now. It’s already been five years since he ran away from home because he didn’t want to get married, and now he’s bringing these two kids with him.”

“Dad. No way. Right?”

Amy said that and hugged me tightly.

Honestly, it took my breath away.

I started to struggle, unable to bear the frustration.

Shine took one look at me, then reached out and picked up the snack.

Me too! I’ll eat it too!

“The family register has already been uploaded. Citizenship will be issued within this week, so keep that in mind.”

“No…How? Right now I am the guardian…”

As Amy muttered softly, Ferman picked up his phone and shook it slightly.

Amy seemed shocked by the sight and hugged me tightly.

Amy jumped up from her seat in anger.

I swayed and dangled in her arms.

“Cancel it immediately. We can’t let our kids live such a frustrating life.”

“If you don’t like it, then why don’t you just take it?”

“Do you know that you’re being so cowardly right now?”

“Adults are always cowards. Amy, think about it. What do you think those kids need right now?”

“That’s…”

“I heard the story. That something like that happened at the lab. They said they haven’t given up yet.”

“Yes…”

Amy’s shoulders were slumping.

I raised my hand and patted Amy’s arm.

Amy, reacting to my movements, let me down.

I landed safely on the floor and cleared my throat.

Big-.

I hope you don’t hear any strange voices?

“Mr. Perman.”

I carefully called out Perman’s name as he sat in front of me.

His gaze begins to turn towards me.

His eyes were wide, as if he was slightly surprised, and he was filled with deep interest.

“Don’t bully Amy.”

Even though they were family, the more Perman and Amy talked, the more Amy became listless and listless.

To me, it looked like Ferman was bullying Amy.

Ferman blinked at my words.

His right eyebrow twitched slightly, and then he twisted his lips into a laugh.

Hahahaha-

I was startled by Perman’s sudden burst of laughter, so I ran behind the sofa and hid.

Ferman, who had been laughing for a long time, wiped away the tears that had gathered in his eyes and opened his mouth.

“You’re Jeff, right?”

His gaze turns to the necklace hanging around my neck.

I nodded quietly.

“Do I look like I’m bullying Amy?”

“Yes.”

Ferman smiled slightly and sat up from his seat.

I couldn’t tell because I was sitting there, but he was quite tall.

Amy’s tall stature was clearly a gene she inherited from Ferman.

“Jeff. I like talented people. I think people with great talent should be treated accordingly.”

Ferman took off the outer garment he was wearing.

The dark blue jacket fell off his body, revealing his massive, twitching torso.

Gulp- I swallowed dry saliva.

Ferman loosened the tie around his neck and rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt.

“Dad. No way.”

“Stay still, Amy.”

“But!”

Perman’s gaze turns to Amy.

Amy met his gaze.

A white aura begins to flow out of Amy’s body.

“Amy. The moment you touch me. I’ll do whatever I want.”

“Dad!”

“If you are capable, you should always be given a chance.”

Ferman said and raised his hand.

The watch on his hand sparkled in the light.

“Jeff. I’ll give you six chances from now on.”

“Opportunity…?”

“For 6 seconds, repeating 6 times. If you can touch my body, I will grant your request.”

I tilted my head at Perman’s confusing words.

6 seconds repeated 6 times?

“Dad. Jeff is still…”

“The emblem worn on the chest. Doesn’t it mean that one can properly do one’s share?”

At Perman’s words, the White King’s energy flowing out of Amy’s body begins to subside.

The blurry white energy wrapped around Amy’s body like a cloak and disappeared.

“By any means, touch my body. You can attack me. You can just grab me. Yeah. It’s easier to think of it as playing tag with me.”

Ferman said that and laughed playfully.

“Tag…”

I nodded, muttering softly.

There was no worry in Shine’s gaze as she looked at me.

She showed no reaction to Perman’s belief that I could do it and his lack of hostility.

“Jeff, you can do it.”

“Yeah.”

I nodded to Shine’s words.

“Okay. I’ll do it.”

I don’t know what 6 seconds repeated 6 times means, but I was confident in tag.

I didn’t say not to use my abilities, so I was confident that if I gave it my all, I could finish the game in a second.

It’s a game I play with Victor sometimes.

“Okay, Jeff. Shall we begin?”

“Like!”

“Start.”

As soon as Perman finished speaking, I raised my abilities.

Pajik – Blue electric currents bursting out from my entire body expanded my senses.

Faster than you think, everything is based on instinct.

The coordinates of every structure in this room come into my head.

The wide-spread electric field allowed my body to move freely anywhere.

I stepped forward immediately.

Thump- As soon as I heard small footsteps, my vision went white.

A world that moves quickly. The body that flew with the lightning stopped right behind Perman.

Got it!

A hand stretched out to touch Ferman’s back, but Ferman’s body began to move in a strange direction.

“Ouch!”

The hand that had lost its goal grabbed the air.

Ferman, who moved like flowing water, took two steps away from me and said.

“That’s fast.”

Ferman’s smile did not disappear.

But the game wasn’t over yet.

I immediately flew to the next location.

A blue electric current shoots out in a straight line, embroidered in the air.

Dismissed-!

With the abilities Victor taught me and the gestures I learned from Lane.

This time from above!

The electricity that wraps around my whole body crackles and shoots out light.

A body that moved in an instant.

I ended up on top of Ferman’s head.

My hand was just about to touch Perman’s head.

All my senses began to distort, along with a strange feeling.

As I was feeling confused, as if I was getting motion sickness, I heard Perman’s voice.

“Jeff. The first 6 seconds are over.”

Click-

The sound of the clock ticking could be heard on Ferman’s wrist.

“This is…”

I looked down at my hands in confusion.

The electric current that had been wrapping around my entire body disappeared without a trace.

I’m sure I’ve improved my skills?

The direction in which he was standing was also strange.

Just before you start catching up.

Just like that, Perman and I stood there.

“Jeff, you can do it.”

I heard Shine’s cheering that I had heard earlier once again.

“Shine…?”

“Start the second 6 seconds.”

Click-

The sound of the clock was heard again.
